Bahia will have two important casualties for the clash against Flamengo. Coach Rogério Ceni will be without striker Biel, who is recovering from spondylolysis, an injury that affects the spine and requires careful and prolonged treatment. Spondylolysis, although common among athletes, requires a recovery time that can vary, which makes it impossible for the player to participate in upcoming games. Biel, who had been an important part of Bahia's attack, will have to remain focused on the rehabilitation process to be available to the squad again.
In addition to Biel, midfielder Acevedo will also be absent. The player is still recovering from arthroscopy on his right knee, a procedure carried out to correct internal problems in the joint. This type of injury and surgery generally requires a recovery period that can vary between weeks and months, depending on the complexity of the injury and the athlete's response to treatment. Acevedo, a key player in Bahia's midfield, will be left out of the clash against Flamengo, which brings an additional challenge for Rogério Ceni, who will have to find solutions to maintain the team's consistency, especially in the defensive sector, where the player Uruguayan plays a prominent role.
FLAMENGO HAS "PROBLEM IN FAVOR"
The absence of these two players has a direct impact on Ceni's planning for the game. Biel, with his speed and finishing ability, is one of the team's main offensive references, and his absence could compromise the Bahian team's firepower. Acevedo, with his experience and marking ability, is fundamental to the defensive balance of the midfield. Without him, Ceni will have to reorganize the team's structure, possibly adapting the game system to make up for the absence of a midfielder with such specific characteristics.
The clash against Flamengo is, in itself, a challenge, and the losses of Biel and Acevedo further complicate Bahia's mission. Flamengo, which is going through a good phase in the Brazilian Championship, comes with a strong and complete squad, increasing the need for quick and effective adjustments on the part of Bahia. Rogério Ceni, known for his ability to adapt tactically, will need to find viable alternatives to keep the team competitive.
The teams play the first game of the quarterfinals at 7 p.m.

Red-and-black striker is the target of speculation in the transfer market

This Monday (16), rumors emerged involving Bahia's interest in signing Gabigol, striker from Mais Querido. According to the channel Paparazzo Rubro-Negro, Tricolor de Aço would have entered the dispute for Gabigol, who has a contract with Flamengojust until December this year. In addition to Bahia, clubs such as Corinthians, Cruzeiro, Grêmio, Palmeiras and Santos would also be keeping an eye on the player.
Despite the speculation, the Bahia board was quick to deny any ongoing negotiations to count on the shirt 99 from Mengão. According to the club's leadership, there is no intention of repeating an operation similar to that carried out with Everton Ribeiro.
As soon as news of the supposed interest began to circulate, Bahia tried to clarify the situation. In a statement, the club's senior management stated that there are no negotiations to sign Gabigol for next season. The information of possible interest, therefore, was directly denied by Tricolor's directors.
Even so, the attacker remains one of the most targeted names in the transfer market for 2025, as he is in the final stretch of contract with Flamengoand you can now sign a pre-contract with any other team.
With Bahia's denial, Corinthians remains the main favorite to sign Gabigol from next year. The possibility of the red-black striker wearing the Timão shirt gains strength, especially after coach Tite appointed Gabigol as the third option for Mengão's attacking command, behind Pedro and Bruno Henrique.
